It's 3am, or so the clock says Maybe it's just crazy like me For a girl's heart that it wants in But it's not sure it has the key Its mind is preoccupied with other things now And it can't seem to function quite right It tries to sleep as time gets lost But it simply ticks through the night So maybe it’s not as late as it says And time still needs to be found Maybe the clock gave that girl its key And the clock still needs to be wound If the clock finds its key it finds time and love a function and a purpose Reunited with her its heart can tick true, a shine gleaming from its surface But sadly, I know this is all believe For a clock could have no heart Which sadly means the clock is fine And I'm the one falling apart Perhaps the clock can serenade me And help me rest my eyes Maybe the clock can distract my heart From its desperate beating tries But in the end I know the clock’s soft ticks Can't outweigh thoughts that keep me awake It's just too much to love such a precious Jewel When you'll never have what it takes

Time Ticks Away
It's 3am, or so the clock says Maybe it's just crazy like me For a girl's heart that it wants in But it's not sure it has the key Its mind is preoccupied with other things now And it can't seem to function quite right It tries to sleep as time gets lost But it simply ticks through the night So maybe it’s not as late as it says And time still needs to be found Maybe the clock gave that girl its key And the clock still needs to be wound If the clock finds its key it finds time and love a function and a purpose Reunited with her its heart can tick true, a shine gleaming from its surface But sadly, I know this is all believe For a clock could have no heart Which sadly means the clock is fine And I'm the one falling apart Perhaps the clock can serenade me And help me rest my eyes Maybe the clock can distract my heart From its desperate beating tries But in the end I know the clock’s soft ticks Can't outweigh thoughts that keep me awake It's just too much to love such a precious Jewel When you'll never have what it takes
